Samantha Perla –August 31, 2018

If you are already here, and are already considering the possibility to become a yoga teacher, picture your life after getting your certification. How do you feel? In my case it made me feel part of group of professionals. It made my career real on a wider spectrum.

This training process helped me learn a lot and really polished the knowledge I already had. I personally loved learning about our anatomical differences, their DVD on comprehensive anatomy is really awesome!

Online education is a commitment, although you have freedom of time and you choose how to study, you should approach it with real interest and discipline. If at any point you have doubts Dr. Jerard is the best, he will happily answer and he will do it promptly.

Lori Speis –April 7, 2015

I am so glad that I found Aura Wellness Center’s Power Yoga Teacher Training. I wanted to deepen my practice and be able to share my knowledge of Yoga with others. Unfortunatly I was unable to attend local teacher training programs because I work a full time job that requires me to be there on the weekends. By being able to study from home I have been able to reach both of my goals. The course work was comprehensive and interesting. Paul was very quick to answer any questions I had and was always polite and helpful. I learned a great deal from this program and have started teaching my own classes. I am very grateful for having found this course, it has opened up many opportunities for me. Thanks for all you help and kind words 🙂 Lori Speis

Donna Nairne –May 18, 2013

Hi Paul I want to thank you so much for having the Aura Wellness Training Program available for distance learning. For as long as I have been practising Yoga, which is 15 years, it was a dream of mine to become a Yoga Teacher. But I was never in a position to spend the required amount of time or money to train to become an instructor. Being able to do the course in my own time that fitted into my schedule easily was fantastic. I looked forward to each study session and learning more with the comprehensive course material. It has been such a pleasurable experience with such prompt professional service. I was so thrilled to receive my certification and the valuable feedback and help you offered me. I can’t wait to share my joy of Yoga with others. I highly recommend this program to anyone who has a dream of being a Yoga teacher. I will be looking at furthering my studies of Yoga in the future with Aura Wellness Center. Thank you for giving me this opportunity to pursue what I love. Certified Yoga Instructor Donna Nairne

Ginger R. Smith, CYT-300 –January 13, 2013

I was introduced to Yoga about 10 years ago yet stopped practicing after the first few years. After leaving a destructive relationship nearly three years ago and falling into a deep depression, I restarted the practice of Yoga, again, with the tapes I had taken with me. Even before I was laid-off as a Litigation Assistant in March of last year, I was already contemplating becoming a Yoga Instructor. After researching programs I could complete at home, I selected Aura Wellness Center’s Power Yoga Teacher Training Camp-in-a-Box – Level 1 (PLATINUM). The materials proved to be comprehensive and easy to follow, and the Center’s teacher blogs were, and still are, an invaluable tool. Although I was given a full year to complete the program, I completed it in nine months, with High Honors! I am thrilled to have become a Certified Yoga Teacher. More importantly, I feel highly confident in my skills to teach others the practice of Yoga due to the continual support, commitment and efforts of Dr. Jerard and Aura Wellness Center. Namaskar.

Adriana Grosso –November 28, 2012

The distance Yoga teacher training with Aura Wellness Center has been a wonderful journey and I encourage those people that want to get deeper in their practice to go for it. I have a very hard work schedule with lot of traveling, so it made it difficult to go to an on-site teacher training. This program suited within my needs and I could handle my learning progress in the way and speed that I wanted. I have been doing Yoga for about 9 years and I found this training as an opportunity not only to learn more about the practice, theory and philosophy of Yoga, but also to make it a way of living. I am now planning to run my own Yoga center in the city I live and I am sure that all the good energies and positive thinking will make it successful. I am very thankful with Paul, who has answered all my inquiries, has given me good advises and guidelines to be a good Yoga teacher. Namaste, Adriana Grosso

Emel Rivenburg –July 10, 2012

I would like to express my deep gratitude to the Aura Wellness center for making the dreams come true and opening the new horizons for the people like me. There could have not been a better chance for me to study Yoga, from the comfort of my own home, and being a mother of a small child, and moving a third time to a different country for the last 5 years. My special thanks goes to Paul Jerard who was exceptionally supportive, very professional and friendly. The ability of Paul to respond to my emails so quickly was absolutely amazing in spite of time difference. Also I would like to add that materials provided for the course were very valuable and educative. Namaste, Emel Rivenburg, Peterborough, England
